Would it be worth zerging crafting or pooling with guildies to help level a crafter ASAP to craft good cannith gear sooner
How do you plan to do that on a server where every one is fresh off Korthos? I don't think grinding for loot to decon is feasible, unless, maybe, there were multiple people on multiple bots pooling the essences and mats together. Even then, it would need to be epic level loot to acquire the tens of thousands of essences needed to level up. Probably could do that for a bit to get enough mats to reach the low level requirements for early to mid heroic crafted gear. Or pay your way through with buying 60k essences. Sev just nutted thinking about this.
There is a gaping problem on this server, that makes competing a joke. Some people will not have access to VKF, which is probably the strongest low level focused dps melee tree, at least for the first few 20 something AP. Inquisitive is grossly overpowered compared to mechanics or artificers. With the store intact, people won't even need much skill to blast away with sorcs. Or low level healing options with store potions.
It is not even an attempt at a level playing field. This is just a not at all veiled cash grab. I expect many to not see it that way, because most got baited for the Reaper pass like fish. It was just a coat of spray candy on a pile of shit, that only went full circle to bring that game back to where it was on EE, with players who have all the racial lives and triple digit reaper points.
And it won't be some fucking PUG paradise either. There are enough people who will strictly roll new toons, non-stop, just to fuck people over. So it's going to be a purely guild and friends related endeavor.
